Coleman a big out for the Lions

Can't say I know anything about him

    The changes make sense. Obviously assuming May is unquestionably fit. If there is any doubt he should be a late out for Tomlinson. Otherwise, it is so tough for Tommo. It’s more than just he did nothing wrong, he was genuinely good and would be playing for most other sides this week.

    Laurie out for Viney makes sense too. He’s had a taste and will be ready for another crack if/when we need a replacement.

    Will be very tough once Salem and Pickett are ready to return. On last week’s game, McVee can’t be dropped.

    He’s good. Line breaker which they lack.

    Thanks for the info mate. We were planning on just rocking up and buying tickets 🤷🏽‍♂️ we have a country family membership but not sure that'll help with a Gabba game. Either way we'll be there

     

    With the country family membership you get one free ticket (per family member) to an interstate game in which Melbourne is playing. This is that one game?

    Regardless, try to get to the ground really early and if you have an issue PM me and I’ll see if my DA BFF can do something to help.

    Gotta feel for Tomlinson, he played so well and deserved another go.

    Fingers crossed May's calf doesn't blow up.

    Tommo can play fwd too. Could have been Sub if May or Tmac struggle.

    McVee and Chandler I'd say, sadly... though I worry about Harmes at times but I'm just glad I'm not a coach or selection committee trying to figure it out lol

    Nah Chandler has been in good form all summer even in the practice game.

    It's Sparrow for me. If he has another nothing game then I'm sorry, he's my immediate out for Pickett when available.

    I smell a late change with May not being risked…

    No insider info, just a faint whiff of footy dept nonsense.

    31. Tight calf. Friday night in Brisbane in March.

    Yeah I reckon they’ll give May till the last minute and Thommo will be traveling emergency and a possible late in.

    Melksham the sub again.

    100%. Intel or not, it is round 2 - it just doesn’t make sense to rush a 30+ bloke back after a very recent calf injury (especially after his replacement played so well last week)

    Right? That’s the first thing I said at banner when I saw the 50 and the #35. Feels closer to 100.

    If May had a question mark over him he wouldn’t have flown up to Brisbane he will play

    Need a big night from the local Brissy Demons as the Lion players are gonna come after HP big time i reckon.

    Likely to get pretty willing early me thinks and he'll be a target throughout the match.

    Hope the boys are mentally prepped for this to happen

    • PREVIEW: North Melbourne

      Can you believe it? After a long period of years over which Melbourne has dominated in matches against North Melbourne, the Demons are looking down the barrel at two defeats at the hands of the Kangaroos in the same season. And if that eventuates, it will come hot on the heels of an identical result against the Gold Coast Suns. How have the might fallen? There is a slight difference in that North Melbourne are not yet in the same place as Gold Coast. Like Melbourne, they are currently situated in the lower half of the ladder and though they did achieve a significant upset when the teams met earlier in the season, their subsequent form has been equally unimpressive and inconsistent.

    • REPORT: Adelaide

      The atmosphere at the Melbourne Football Club at the beginning of the season was aspirational following an injury-plagued year in 2024. Coach Simon Goodwin had lofty expectations with the return of key players, the anticipated improvement from a maturing group with a few years of experience under their belts, and some exceptional young talent also joining the ranks. All of that went by the wayside as the team failed to click into action early on. It rallied briefly with a new strategy but has fallen again with five more  consecutive defeats.

    • CASEY: Coburg

      The Casey Demons returned to their home ground which was once a graveyard for opposing teams but they managed to gift the four points on offer to Coburg with yet another of their trademark displays of inaccuracy in front of goals and some undisciplined football that earned the displeasure of the umpires late in the game. The home team was welcomed by a small crowd at Casey Fields and looked right at home as it dominated the first three quarters and led for all bar the last five minutes of the game. In the end, they came away with nothing, despite winning everywhere but on the scoreboard and the free kick count.

    • PREGAME: Rd 18 vs North Melbourne

      After four weeks on the road the Demons make their long awaited return to the MCG next Sunday to play in a classic late season dead rubber against the North Melbourne Kangaroos. Who comes in and who comes out?

    • POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

      The Demons were wasteful early before putting the foot down early in the 2nd quarter but they chased tail for the remainder of the match. They could not get their first use of the footy after half time and when they did poor skills, execution and decision making let them down.
